“Libertarians, communists, conservatives all have the same problem. The crap they advocate just does not work in real life. If the human race survives, it will be because we Liberals will drag the purveyors of simplicity along with us as has been happening for centuries. A Liberal is not being on the left. It is a combination of compassion, a sense of fair play, a belief in science and logic and the understanding that there is always going to be a tension and a fine line between Freedom and doing the best thing for everyone concerned. It is hard to capsulize this way of thinking in a talking point. It takes an adult to be a Liberal.”

I stole this from John Keane on Facebook in the group “1 Million Strong Against Turning Back The Civil Rights Act of 64.” Thank you John.
